Teacher Dashboard

When a teacher successfully signs into the platform, the background artwork from the homepage, and its elements, shall fade out, and the "Teacher Dashboard" shall fade in. As shown in the first mockup, above, this initial view consists of the Readingful logo and subtitle, with the actual content section directly below, that changes depending on which function the teacher is working with at any given time. In the upper right we have the main "Navigation Menu" and in the lower right a welcome greeting for the teacher.

 

Welcome Greeting

Upon sign in, this greeting shall show in the lower right of the "Teacher Dashboard," and hold for a count of 10 seconds. The greeting begins with the standard salutation of "Hello" followed by the teacher's first name. Directly underneath is the sentence "Welcome to Readingful." After that 10 second count, the greeting shall fade out, and be replaced with the teacher's avatar, and name, as shown in the second mockup. When hovered over, the avatar/name combo shall be replaced with the "Sign Out" phrase/icon. Clicking that button, should sign the teacher out, first reporting "Signing you out..." along with processing animation, in that lower right corner, as shown in the fourth mockup, above.

 

Content Section Default

The content section to show for the "Teacher Dashboard" upon sign in should be the "Students" section, by default. Teachers will be vising Readingful to work with student accounts, and review student data, more than any other task. As such, we want to hit them with this most important area, right up front, when they sign in. However, there is one exception... and that's when there are 5 or fewer days remaining in the teacher's subscription. If the teacher's students have 5 or fewer days of access remaining, the "Extend Access" of the "Subscription" section of the "Teacher Dashboard" shall show upon successful sign in.

 

Navigation Menu

The "Navigation Menu" for the "Teacher Dashboard," in the upper right, shall consist of a stack of 5 icons, with their fill color controllable via CSS, that allow the teacher to navigate through the dashboard's various main content sections. When the teacher hovers over any menu item, it's title shall display beside it, as shown in the third mockup, above. The buttons should go from 50% opacity, to 75% on hover, 100% onclick. This menu's icons each exist in a 48 x 48 rem space, separated by 36 rem.

 

Background Images

For the "Teacher Dashboard," we'll be providing the teacher with different options for background images. In the "Settings" section, we'll allow the teacher to make this selection. Each new teacher account shall be assigned one of the options, randomly, upon creation. The admin will have a setting for uploading these background images collectively, in a ZIP file.

 

New Users

When a teacher first joins Readingful, and signs in, we don't want to simply present the teacher with an empty "Students Table." As such, we'll instead display the message shown in the fifth mockup, above. This message instructs the teacher that he or she should first watch an introduction video, to help familiarize him or her with the teacher account. After that, the message contains direction that to get students started with Readingful, the teacher should create an account for each student.

The "Introduction Video" hyperlink here should open the "Getting Started" video for Readingful using the same viewing dimensions, and player, as in the "Learn More" section. Even though the videos are different.

The "Create an Account" hyperlink should open the "Student Account Creation" module.

There's also a link titled "Ask a Question," which should simply open the module from the "Helpbook" that allows the user to contact Readingful directly.

This message should only display by default until the teacher creates his or her first student account. After that, while it should no longer display by default to the teacher, on sign in, there shall temporarily be a sixth icon in the topline menu (heart symbol) that lets the teacher revisit this message (until such time as either the free trial expires, or the teacher purchases a subscription). With either of these conditions met, this sixth icon shall be permanently redacted from the topline menu for the teacher.

Also in the fourth mockup, you'll note that the "Leaderboard" link in the subtitle is missing. This is because without at least 2 student accounts created, there's no reason for the "Leaderboard" view option to even display. So, until the teacher has at least 2 student accounts created, it should not display.
